Embedded metals – are welded constructions that are embedded in concrete or reinforced concrete elements and are made of structural steel. It can be channels, angles, various kinds of sheet, flat or shaped steel.
Production of embedded metals made of various kinds of steel.
Embedded metals – are welded constructions that are embedded in concrete or reinforced concrete elements and are made of structural steel. They are used for joining monolithic and prefabricated metal constructions with each other or other elements of buildings and constructions.
Embedded metals are either cold-forged or welded using sheet or shaped steel. The latter includes angles, channels, and various kinds of sheet, flat or round steel.
The table below shows recommendations on how to choose steel for embedded metals.

Basic types and design shapes of welded seams of embedded metals are to be determined by SNiP 23-81 ‘Steel constructions’ and comply with the requirements of GOST (5264, 8713,11533(4),14771,23518).
Embedded metals are generally classified into two types: open and close.
You can buy embedded metals and other products of high quality made at the ‘AST Group’ plant.
